In a road rage incident that occurred in Bengaluru on Friday, the police claimed a man was dragged on a car's bonnet for a kilometre.Ā A man named Darshan is seen attempting to maintain his position atop the car, which is purportedly being driven by a lady named Priyanka, in the CCTV footage of the event that has gone viral on social media.

Police claim that Priyanka's automobile and Darshan's car were involved in an early traffic collision on the Jnanabharathi Main Road.Ā As Priyankaā€™s car allegedly crashed with Darshanā€™s car, the latter came out of the vehicle. When Darshan tried to stop the car and speak to the occupants, Priyanka allegedly accelerated the car at high speed and drove away.

Darshan instantly sprang and climbed onto the car's bonnet out of fear of being driven over. Then, with Darshan seated on the car's bonnet, the accused drove off at a high rate of speed for a kilometre.
